Review: A delight, 5 stars! - Having enjoyed Jurassic Park I was eager to dive into this one and wow, this was equally as thrilling as book one. This author is an absolute master of raising your anxiety and creating tension you feel you can touch. This book is fantastic in so many ways. It gets right under your skin and it's frightening but equally it's making you think about science, the planet, our existence. Ian Malcolm goes down as an unforgettable character for me. What a legend. And while there was traces of it in book one, this book has amazing females characters. I've many complaints regarding male authors and their female characters but credit where its due, Crichton nails it. There's no damsels in distress here. I hope teen girls are picking this book up and being inspired by the confident inspirational females in this book. This duology was a delight. I've no idea why I waited so long to read it. Five stars. Review: Crichton Delivers Again - When this book was first published many readers were critical, claiming that Crichton was cashing in on the success of the original Jurassic Park. And whilst there are many elements of the original novel in this sequel, it still works perfectly and keeps the magic of genetically manufactured dinosaurs alive! The story is relatively straightforward, with genetesists looking for "Site B"; the development site of the dinosaurs from the original novel with two sets of protaganists racing each other for the prize. With only one original character returning from the original, it doesn't simply continue on the saga and introduces new ideas and opinions. Each character has their own strengths and weaknesses but I feel that their development wasn't as strong as those form the original. That said, they work for this story (which isn't too long) and with a short timeframe in which to complete their mission, the drama unfolds very quickly and probably doesn't allow for greater depth of character development. OK, there is a great deal of predictability and some very far-fetched ideas, but this is science fiction and can only be approached with an open mind. Having re-read this (many years after originally reading it upon it's release), I have come to appreciate it a lot more than maybe I did first time around and I would encourage doubters to give it a go. A fun read, that won't take too much time, and in typical style Crichton delivers a great tale based on great, fast-paced drama surrounding cutting edge technology of the time . ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 83,355 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 27 in Genetic Engineering Fiction 34 in TV, Movie, Video Game Adaptions 153 in Science Fiction Adventure (Books) | | Book 2 of 2 | Jurassic Park | | Customer reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (17,171) | | Dimensions | 10.67 x 2.49 x 18.97 cm | | Edition | Reprint | | ISBN-10 | 0345538994 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0345538994 | | Item weight | 1.05 kg | | Language | English | | Print length | 432 pages | | Publication date | 30 Oct. 2012 | | Publisher | Ballantine Books | ## Images ![The Lost World: 2 (Jurassic Park) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ALyn5SZgL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A delight, 5 stars! *by M***E on 21 December 2022* Having enjoyed Jurassic Park I was eager to dive into this one and wow, this was equally as thrilling as book one.

As a book the story line (different to that of the film) is more enjoyable. The characters are more believable on paper ; with even a few that weren't used in the film. I enjoyed the mix of science and adventure in the book, there is no T-rex on the streets of San fransico.This a great follow-up to Jurassic Park (which better be released on kindle soon) When i went to see this at its movie release after reading the book several times already i was disgusted how much it was changed. As Ian Malcolm I find Jeff Goldblum annoying, Didn' t see the point in Vince Vaughan's character who isn't in the book and the girl Kelly, who was suppose to be Malcolm's daughter WTF. Do yourself a favour read the book ignore the film. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Lost World: A Novel (Jurassic Park) - Jurassic Park: A Novel - The Andromeda Strain --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/65748516-the-lost-world-2-jurassic-park](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/65748516-the-lost-world-2-jurassic-park) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
